    How is this rum rated?

    7.3/10 37 reviews

    Surprisingly fruity on the nose, like a large fruit cocktail. Vanilla and barrel notes on the palate. First toffee and pastry on the finish, then woody again.

    Strong aroma like a Jamaican rum, heavy on the dunder, but quite refined with it. Spicy and dry in the mouth with a caramel undertone. Finish is woody and nutty.

    A good rum, pleasant in the mouth, lightly woody and vanilla-flavoured, with no added sugar or colouring.

    Very nice, full nose, full taste,soft hint of whiskey at the end
